Care Instructions

To preserve the beauty and integrity of your bird gemstone pendant:

• Gentle Handling: The delicate beak, wings, and tail feathers require extra care to prevent chips or breaks.

• Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Remove pendant before swimming, showering, or applying lotions and perfumes.

• Gentle Cleaning: Clean with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap if needed. Dry immediately with a soft cloth.

• Proper Storage: Store in a fabric-lined jewelry box or pouch to prevent scratches from harder stones or metals. Consider individual compartments to protect delicate features.
